It can be said that the father and son decided on the place to repair the house quite simply. In fact, it was because they had no better choice. If possible, Lin Yi also wanted to build the house by the river. Rivers can live too.

But the riverside is not suitable for thatched houses. They can't survive this winter, so they should rely on the mountains. Anyway, relying on the mountains to eat the mountains, and relying on the water to eat water.

There are a hundred or ten households in Hedong Village, which is not too many, but it is also quite a lot. The total number of people in this village is almost a thousand, which can be regarded as a medium-to-large village.

Hedong Village is very large, but mountains and rivers occupy half of the village. There are not many fields in the village, and there are not many undeveloped wasteland in the village. The area at the end of the village is the most, mainly because there are few people here. live.

Lin Yi is quite satisfied with this piece, among other things, the vegetable garden is there, and it is also quiet, so it will not be noisy all the time. It is convenient to go up and down the mountain, but it is a bit far away from the river. Not good.

And the original owner still remembers one thing about the village, "Father, I remember that you can go to the town and the county from here, right?"

It only takes half an hour from their village to the town, and an hour to the county seat, which is not too far away, and the town and the county seat are on the same road, so it is much more convenient to go there.

After hearing Lin Yi's words, Lin Laosan took him forward and stopped at an intersection, "It's here, but you have to pass by Biechaihe Village to get to the town."

"What's the matter, it's just crossing the road, father, this place is pretty good, let's go back to the village chief now."

Lin Laosan was encouraged by his son, and he didn't think about the issues he wanted to think about. The father and son started to walk back to the village chief's house.

The village chief's house is not far from the Lin's house. According to the village, it's just a few steps away, but the few are not in single digits.

They went back just in time for lunch, and the village chief's family was eating lunch. As soon as the village chief Fu Yun saw the two of them, he thought of what the village chief said to him yesterday, and he was very polite to them, insisting on greeting them for dinner. .

Lin Laosan and Lin Yi shook their heads quickly, Lin Laosan said, "Brother, let's stop eating. We came to the village chief to talk about building the house. Now that the trouble is like this, we can't live here either. After going down, the place where the house is being repaired has been taken care of, so I will talk to the village chief."

Hearing that Lin Laosan and Lin Yi were really talking about business, the village chief Fu Lang didn't force them, and asked the village chief to talk to Lin Laosan first, and then eat after talking.

The village chief didn't have any objections, so he moved a stool into the yard to listen to Mr. Lin talking about building the house.

Lin Laosan told him and Lin Yi that he and Lin Yi went to the end of the village to look at the place, "Village chief, now there are only two places in the village where houses can be repaired. Can we build a thatched house?"

In the village, you need to buy land to build a house. It doesn’t mean that you can build it if you want. Even if it’s a wasteland, you have to pay some money. Lin Laosan must not be able to afford the money in the current situation. Also feel headache.

Seeing the village chief's embarrassment, Lin Laosan felt embarrassed, "Village chief, look at this, go and ask me how much this land costs, I'll go back and find a way to scrape together some money to buy it, do you think so?" ?”

The village chief knew that it was almost impossible to ask Lin Laosan to take out the money now. As the village chief, he could help, and the village chief said, "Don't worry about this, I'll go and ask you, As for the money, I’ll help you pay for it first, and then you can return it to me when you have it in the future.”

Even if Lin Laosan went to collect money, he would ask others to borrow it. It would be much more convenient for them if the village chief opened the mouth. Lin Laosan wanted to refuse, but the situation at home was like this. Thank you again and again to the village chief.

"Village Chief, I'm really sorry for your trouble. When my family's life gets better, I will return the money right away..."

"Okay, it's all in the same village, don't say so much, I'll ask you to buy the remaining wasteland over there, and then build a thatched hut first, and wait until the days are better. , think again."

"I'm sorry for the trouble, the village chief. We also thought the same way, and now we can only do so." Lin Laosan lowered his head, embarrassed.

They used to think that raising their sons would make life easier for them, but they didn't expect him to be in his early fifties, and he didn't even have a place to live.

Things that I didn't think about before have happened now, and Lin Laosan naturally didn't accept it so easily, but at any rate, there is still a son by his side, and it's not that when he is old, a son doesn't care about him.

The village head said to help advance the money first, and then said to help Lin Laosan find someone to repair the house for them, but Lin Laosan refused. The village head has helped enough, and he can do things that ask people to help , It is not good to continue to trouble the village chief.

The village chief didn't insist on hearing what Lin Laosan said, and said that he would go to the yamen to buy the land for him tomorrow, and he can also invite him here, so make preparations first.

Lin Laosan naturally agreed wholeheartedly, since it was his own business.

When they left, the village chief Fu Lang stuffed two boiled eggs into Lin Yi's hand, "Boy Yi, you take these two eggs back and eat them, and your family will have to count on you in the future, can you?" You have to take care of your body."

Naturally, Lin Yi refused to accept the eggs. Just like Lin Laosan said, the village chief has indeed helped a lot.

"Uncle, I can't accept these eggs. I'm taking medicine and I'll get better soon. I'm fine. Don't worry, Uncle."

The village head, Fu Lang, naturally refused to take it back, "Okay, you can take it if you want, you can eat one, and you can eat one for your Lantern Festival. Don't tell your uncle that you don't want it." .”

Unable to refuse, Lin Yi had no choice but to accept, "Thank you uncle, uncle and the village chief, I, Lin Yi, will keep it in my heart."

Hearing Lin Yi's words, the village chief Fu Lang smiled, "Okay, okay, it's just two eggs, what are you talking about, take it back and eat it while it's hot, don't leave it alone."

Lin Yi nodded, "Uncle, I understand."

After coming out of the village chief's house, Lin Laosan asked Lin Yi to go back first. He asked someone to help repair the house. The family has no money now, and even cooking is a problem. It's not easy to ask people to do work. San didn't want his son to go with him.

Lin Yi also guessed what Lin Laosan was thinking, so he nodded, agreed, and gave Lin Laosan an egg, "Daddy, you can eat one of these eggs, and I will take the rest back home." Give it to Yuanxiao." The child is too young and thin, and it makes people feel distressed just looking at it.

Lin Laosan naturally refused to take it, "This is for you, you are not in good health, you can make up for it by eating an egg, get better soon."

Lin Yi shook his head, "Father, I know my own body. I can recover after drinking the medicine. It doesn't matter whether I eat the egg or not. Daddy, you have to wait a while before you can go back to eat. You will definitely be hungry. You eat it." An egg pad is also good for your stomach.”

Lin Laosan didn't know when he would be able to go back. Naturally, it would be difficult for him to ask for help to eat at someone else's house. He would definitely be hungry by then, so thinking of Lin Laosan, he took the eggs.

"Okay, you go back, I'll find someone."

Lin Yi nodded, turned around and walked in the direction of the Lin family.

Before he got there, he saw thick smoke from afar. Lin Yi didn't know what was going on, so he unconsciously quickened his pace and walked over there. When he got outside the yard, he started panting and coughing.

It was also at this moment that Lin Yi finally knew what happened. Zheng Yu was cooking outside with Yuan Xiao.

The thick smoke was the fire that had just started and hadn't dissipated yet. Zheng Yu got a pot out of nowhere and was cooking porridge on the fire.

As soon as Yuan Xiao saw Lin Yi, she jumped over happily, "Daddy, you're back!"

Lin Yi smiled and nodded, "Well, I'm back."

Then he gave Yuan Xiao the egg he was holding in his hand, "Look at what Dad brought back for you."

I know Egg Yuanxiao, my eyes lit up when I saw the egg, "Daddy, it's an egg!"

Lin Yi nodded, "That's right, it's eggs. Can Yuanxiao eat them by himself? Do you want Dad to peel them for you?"

When Yuan Xiao heard this, she shook her head like a rattle, "No need, Yuan Xiao will peel it off."

The words were loud and confident, Lin Yi smiled with the corner of his mouth curled up, "Okay, then peel the Yuanxiao by yourself, daddy will go and see you."

Yuan Xiao nodded obediently, and followed Lin Yi step by step towards Zheng Yu's side, still holding the egg in her hand, but didn't make a move.

Lin Yi walked to Zheng Yu's side. Zheng Yu was busy lighting the fire, so he didn't go there just now. When he saw Lin Yi coming, he looked up at him, "Sir, you are back, you can eat later."

"Well, don't worry." Lin Yi looked at Zheng Yu and said.

Then I looked at the pot again, some brown rice and some green vegetables were mixed together and cooked.

Lin Yi asked, "Xiao Yu, where did you get this pot? Is this cooking porridge?"

Zheng Yu was a little surprised by the sound of light rain. Lin Yi had never called him that before. He had always been called Zheng Yu. When he heard it all of a sudden, Zheng Yu liked the name besides being surprised.

However, he didn't show his liking, and kept it in his heart. Zheng Yu answered Lin Yi's question, "I borrowed this pot, and it's not good to bother Uncle He's house all the time, so I borrowed a pot." , we can cook a la carte porridge by ourselves.”

This is originally a place where porridge is eaten for three meals a day all year round, so it is not strange to eat vegetable porridge every day, and it is rare to have a meal of this dry rice.

This meal can be done in one pot.

Lin Yi felt that Zheng Yu was really a smart person, so he praised him without hesitation, "Xiao Yu, you are so smart, you can imagine everything."

Zheng Yu blushed a little from Lin Yi's praise, "It's nothing, it's just a pot," and then felt a little guilty, "It's just that we have to eat like this recently."

Lin Yi looked at him, shook his head and said, "It's not your fault, it's great to be able to do this, and it will be fine when we have a place to live."

Zheng Yu nodded, this is indeed the only way to go now.

Afterwards, Lin Yi watched Zheng Yu cook, and by the way, watched his little brother peel the eggs clumsily, with a smile on his lips. Life was a little bit hard, but he had a wife, son, and family. It's the best life ever.
